Hanna Kritten Tangsoo, Sigrid Savi

COWBODY / Oh wow it’s you!

Fold – Fragile Welten | Tanzfabrik Berlin / Wedding

Production Details / Press Releases

A very daily routine of believing in a moment where everything will be just fine. Belief that is somehow holding everything loosely together. You are a subject to forces you cannot understand that drive you apart. You are a real person. Don’t worry. The oxygen is flowing. So now you can finally let yourself go, can’t you?

«COWBODY/ Oh wow, it’s you!» engages with shifting focus from extraordinary to the habitual. Bringing together expectations and outcomes, it smoothes into a world where intimacy is exercised from a distance and sometimes only half a sentence is just enough. Sigrid Savi and Hanna Kritten Tangsoo invite the audience to witness a hotpot of dance, sculpture, music and fitness trampolines where in a form of self-defense two bodies enjoy finding the struggle, or struggle to find joy.

Hanna Kritten Tangsoo (she/her) is a Berlin-based choreographer and lighting designer. She graduated BA Dance, Context, Choreography in HZT Berlin 2014-2017. During studies she started to work as a theater technician at the university and thus came into contact with lighting design. In 2021 she was selected to the ETC Electronic Theater Controls Ltd Fred Foster Student Mentorship Program International branch.

Sigrid Savi (she/her) is a choreographer based between Berlin and Tallinn. She graduated BA in Choreography at Viljandi Culture Academy. Her first solo work «Imagine There’s a Fish» (Sōltumatu Tantsu Lava) toured around Europe. Savi presented her second solo work «Pushing Daisies» (Kanuti Gildi SAAL) at the International performing arts festival SAAL Biennaal 2019. She has performed a piece «not this pillow fight» with Jon Konkol in New York at Panoply Performance Lab and in Berlin at grüntaler9.
